The program, now in its ninth year, seeks to support metro Atlanta’s visual artists and in turn support the city’s arts community. Each artist will receive a $15,000 stipend, studio assistant and a solo exhibit at the museum with a catalogue.

This year’s recipients were selected by juror René Morales, curator at the Pérez Art Museum Miami since 2005. Morales organized three well-received exhibitions for the opening of PAMM in 2013 — Amelia Peláez: The Craft of Modernity; A Human Document: Selections from the Sackner Archive of Concrete and Visual Poetry; and Monika Sosnowska: Market. “The three artists selected for next year’s Working Artist Program represent a wide diversity of artistic approaches, testifying to the vibrancy and dynamism of Atlanta’s artistic community,” said Morales.
